Abstract
The present invention relates to crystalline Form A of obeticholic acid and the preparation method thereof. The present invention provides Form A having characteristic peaks at 2theta value of 4.9°±0.2°, 5.2°±0.2°, 9.9°±0.2°. The present invention provides a novel crystalline form of obeticholic acid, which has good stability, good processability and other favorable properties, and is suitable for storage and usage as a final product. In addition, the preparation method is simple, low cost, and has great value for the future optimization and development of obeticholic acid.
